Manage episode 381709414 series 3524287
We started the last conversation by discussing what authenticity means. Authenticity is the core of our podcast and it is controversial just talking about it. There was more to delve deeper into this discussion so we invited Dr. Amy Mathews-Perez to join us.
Dr. Mathews-Perez is an experienced expert, an energetic leader and learner, an aspiring author, and an inspiration advocate. Amy is connecting and communicating through laughter and real life. Working to make education special for everyone!
Amy shared strategies she used and learned through experiences, courses, and books she read around critical conversations. Sometimes we have to learn things multiple times about what works.
Amy shared her definition of authenticity:
Knowing your own values, core values, and non-negotiables. Once you know what those are, then authenticity means showing those to the world through your actions and how they impact you. Relationships are about who you want to invest in.
Amy shared Jon Gordon's quote on mental health:
"If it is still bothering you in 24 hours, then you need to follow up before 48 hours."
A Gem Amy shared: You cannot be in a power struggle unless both or all people in the struggle are involved.
Another Gem: QTIP: Quit Taking It Personal
Make sure you listen all the way through for all the examples, strategies, and so many gems that Amy shared with us.
